Grey, you're not the only one. The game looks like a very over-hyped and over simplified Left4Dead. It's designed strictly multiplayer battle arena hide and seek game(oh look, a new type of MOBA), but at a full $60 box price. The game sure is getting traction for hype, but long term it's going to slip fast into repetitive boredom.

And I kind of question a 2-part article here. Your "set up" for a clear punchline at the end of the week is nothing more than pretty drawings of what the game is about. I'm at a lose to care for this comic at all and Erin in this one could be replaced with any generic character without tell due to lacking her charismatic personality.

You aren't the only one left at the Hype Station, games designed around multiplayer or arena combat are generally something that don't interest me. Topping that off with other things I disagree with about the game I just left it alone and walked back to my other games.

And here I was expecting to only be able to see the first 4 panels, with the 5th panel being visible only if I pre-ordered this week's comic and the 6th panel only being visible at a later time for an extra cost.

I'd offer you a hammer but you already hit the nail on the head. I played in the open beta and tried to be forgiving in my opinion (after all, beta.) but ultimately theres nothing to it. Such a shame considering how excited I got when I first saw the trailer!

Like Grey, I have no interest in this game. So, this strip, to me, is basically "Ha ha, Evolve certainly is a game, and we are indeed referencing it! It's funny how we are making a reference to a game!"

Then again, I have the same reaction to every TF2 comic I've ever seen.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way about the game and games designed around multiplayer in general. I don't feel so lonely now at the station! :D

OT: Well, this should be interesting, can't wait to see part two and how this ends.

Preordered the PC Monster Race pack (I regret nothing) and have been playing almost nonstop since the midnight launch. Having a fucking blast. Leave it to The Escapist forums to be the festering hive of the bandwagon-haters.

and leave it to insecure hype blinded fanboys to make snarky remarks to keep their illusion that they made a good decision.

Seriously dude ... people expressed their oppinion that seems to be preety well represented among the comunity, and you pop-up to call them all bandwagon haters because they don't have the same opinion as you. And you feel the need to add that you preordered the most expensive version of the game. You might want to look in a mirror and think a bit about your decision before waving your dick around and slapping people in the face with it because they don't agree with you.
